Is anyone into motorbikes
I am going to buy a scooter to do shoots once it gets warmer. I have a car, but I find i spend so much time in traffic, that my thought is get a scooter to go the shoots and zip past the traffic.
I just got a classic scooter cheap on ebay (this time of year less demand). But that is just for fun.
My thought is, is it worth removing the alcohol from petrel (I think they call it gas in the USA).
It is easy to remove.
The thing is, it attracts water and blocks the carburetor.
I think the classic bike needs the carburetor cleaned. Easy to do, but too cold to do it.
So is anyone into bikes and what say you on this.
By the way, to remove the alcohol, all you do is add some water (make life easy and add food colouring) shake, then leave to stand for 24 and it should separate out.
Of course it is probably less of a problem if you fill up and use the fuel quickly, but if you leave the bike to stand, then one suspects the moist with get in.
The other advantage of a scoter is that we are finding more tows charging you to go in with cars. Plus cheap on fuel.
I may look a dork, but I just think it will save so much time.
